Science & Technology Town Meeting - Thursday 14th December

Science & Technology – The Way Forward?
The Science & Technology Working Group has undergone many evolutionary changes since its formation as the Materials Foresight panel in 1993. Now under the banner of Materials UK, it aims to drive forward the science & technology agenda for materials in the UK.

A Town Meeting was held at the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining, 1 Carlton House Terrace, London on Thursday 14th December to discuss the future strategy for the Working Group and for materials.

The Presentations from the Town Meeting are available for dowload below. The outcomes of the afternoon breakout sessions will be available shortly.
